Better practice has made Lawson a better player for UNC

Ty Lawson's elevated level of play coincides with a great commitment to one important aspect of succeeding in any sport. "I started practicing hard, that's probably the main thing," he said. "Going hard at everything in practice. I've now realized that how you do in practice is how you'll do in the game, so practice is a big part." Lawson said getting used to the regiment and intensity of a college practice took some getting used to. (Wilmington Star News)
